Our Homegrown Parsley
We have always wanted to grow our own herbs, fruits and vegetables. We make a point to buy only organic produce - so growing everything on our own land with OUR supervision is truly a dream come true. We don’t have the space on our property to grow all the produce we need in our diet, but we did grow a few different vegetables this spring/summer/fall.
This year, we grew….
Tomatoes, Peppers (2 different kinds), Zucchini, Cilantro, Basil, Mint, Green Onions, Blueberries, and….
We picked this parsley fresh from our very own garden.
Parsley is such a wonderful addition to most recipes - it’s packed with flavor yet low in calories so we try to incorporate into many of our dishes.
Some of our favorite health benefits are below:
1️⃣ Rich in antioxidants ~ lowers your risk of colon cancer, diabetes, and heart disease.
2️⃣ High content of Vitamins A & C ~ good for the immune system.
3️⃣ Rich in Vitamin K ~ Promotes bone health.
4️⃣ Protects your eyes.
5️⃣ Has antibacterial properties.
Best of all.. it’s delicious and versatile.
